Hello Everybody,
Well, we made it to the end of the term. I have to admit that i am relieved, though i know i still have many more classes and terms to get through, i am glad to know that i have complete another term, and i am ready to move on and be one step closer to graduating. I can't wait!
I start my new second job this week, very excited, but at the same time i know that it is going to be tough, and i will be exhausted. I will be working at least 70 hours a week with both jobs combined. I need the money though and as long as it does not get in the way of my schooling, i am ok with it. Wish me luck! :)
I hope everyone did great this term and i hope you all do great in the future as well. I took a 3 and 1/2 hour exam for anatomy today, and i and kind of upset because i did not do too well. But i have a good grade in the class overall, and so i hope it does not drop too much.
Anyways, i hope you all have a good week off from school. It has been great being in class with you. And as i said before, good luck!!!

Whadda Week!!!
Hello Everyone,
I have to say, this past week has been kind of stressful. Just been busy with work, homework, housework....what else is knew? We all go through it though. I work at the hospital doing laundry tues through fri 6am-1:30pm and work every other sat 6am-whenever i can get done. I just picked up another job at a new restraunt in town to work nights. Everyone tells me i am going to get burnt out, but i need money for bills and i will do what i have to do, at least until i get caught up. The restraunt (called Charlie's) was supposed to open this past saturday, but got pushed to tomorrow. The owner still hasen't called to give uniforms or schedules. I called 4 times today and no answer. I drove by the place today, where the sign DID say "opening July 13), but now says "opening July". So apparently not tomorrow, which i was counting so that i can make some money! Anyways, hopefully it will open soon. As long as it doesn't get in the way with my schooling, i will be ok.
In other news, i finally went through all my bills and debts and wrote them all out and separated them into what i can try to pay, and what i need help with. I am going to the bank tomorrow to see if i can get a loan. Hopefully i can :)
At least we have made it to the final weeks of this term. I need to work on some final touches for my final paper and complete my seminar option 2 paper, then i will be caught up. I spent 3 hours this mornin completing my anatomy final paper and the seminar option 2 paper for that class. I just need to take an exam for anatomy and that will be complete too. This next weeks unit will be rough though, because in anatomy the final exam takes 3 1/2 HOURS!!! Blah blah blah...i can do it though :)
I hope everyone has been doing great with classes, and i wish everyone luck in future classes, and i will probably "see" some of you in future classes.
Just remember, keep your head up and try to enjoy life, remember the positive things in life. I have to remind myself of this everyday, and though i have many many stresses right now, i know that i will get through it and i do have ALOT to be thankful for.
Thanks everyone for listening to my babble and complaining. I don't mean to be a "debbie downer" but i don't usually complain about my problems, it's just that on here is my chance to "release" my feelings. I do think it helps.
There is always someone who has it worse off than you...remember that.
It's a part of life!

What's next?
Hello Everyone,
Well, we are only 2 weeks away from finishing this term. Another notch for reaching my goal of graduation, closer and closer every week! I can't believe how fast my weeks fly by since i have started school with kaplan. I love it though! I feel like i am accomplishing so much, and that motivates me more to want to work harder and harder so that i can reach my goal. I have now come too far to just quit or not try. Also i have spent too much money ;)
Anyways, everything is going good so far. I got hired for a second job this week. I have already been working at the hospital for a year now (was doing housekeeping, now doing laundry). We have a new restaraunt opening this week here in our small town, and i got hired. So i will be very busy!!! I will be working 6am-1:30pm at the hospital, then nights at the restaraunt. I haven't started yet and don't know what my hours will be. The only downside is that the owner said he may open this weekend, but on saturday is "Relay for Life" and i have already been signed up for that, along with plans i have later sat night that i made with my friend 2 months ago. Hmmm, guess we will just have to see. I have been a little stressed financially lately, so this second job will help. He said he would give me 40 hours a week if i want it, which i do, but i already work 30 hours a week at the hospital. My father says to not take on more than i can handle, i need sleep and i cannot let my school start going down hill. Not after all i have accomplished!
Well, i will update you all in a couple of days.

Life is a little better
Hello Everybody,
I hope you are all having a great week. I feel a little less stressed compared to last weeks units. This week has been pretty good, and i am getting excited because we are so much closer to being done with these current courses, which means we are one step closer to completing and recieving our degree! Anyways, we still have a couple weeks left, so i can't let my motivation get down. I am still exploring this whole blog thing and trying to get it figured out. This class is so much different from all the other ones i have taken, so it takes some getting used to. By the time i get used to it, it will be over probably :)
How many of you will keep blogging when this class is over? Just curious as to how many people really do enjoy it. I think i do. I guess when i am stressed or just need to say something, i feel satisfied after saying it on here. Even if nobody is reading it.
Well, i better get going. I am trying to get all my homework completed so that i can clean my house and paint. I am repainting pretty much every room in my house, well i would actually like to remodel the whole house. It takes a lot of time and money to do that though. If anyone has and pointers let me know :)
Thanks!

Hello Everybody,
Wow is all i have to say. Does anyone else think this is kind of a rough week for homework? I don't even know where to start. I always do discussion boards first, but i can't because the DB is to write an outline of our rough draft, but the rough draft is our assignment for the final project for unit 6. So i figure i will start with the project outline first, but i am having a hard time with it. I am not good with rough drafts and outlines. Well, at least i can work on my blog :) Also, in my other class anatomy and physiology 2, my assignment is to make an outline for that final project too. So i have two to write. Hey, i caught up on 4 weeks of work in about 1 week, so i am sure i can do it all if i put my mind to it, it is just stressful with work and everything else. But we all have struggles. I do get motivated to think that we are already in unit 6, so in 4 more weeks we will be moving on to our new classes and we will be one step closer to graduating. We are all going through the same things with school so we all need to stick together and help each other out. Don't be afraid to ask. Anyways, i need to get some sleep. Let me know how you guys are all doing :) I'll be back on to write.
This is life, we take what is thrown at us and make the best of it.

TGIF
Well, what a week it has been. Trying to catch up in classes has been SO tiring and stressful on top of a full-time job. So far in the last week, i have done 4 exams, 1 quiz, 7 papers written, 1 project proposal, 3 Discussion Boards, and a partridge in a pair tree :) it's friday, and i am exhausted. But i do have to say that i am very proud of myself, it feels great knowing how much i have accomplished! Thanks guys for encouraging me, it means alot and i definately needed it. I am still not caughtup but i am almost there, hopefully one or two more 5 hour days on the computer :) I am gonna have to get my eyes checked after this. Anyways, I hope you all have a great weekend. I have to work at 6am but after that i am going to a friends house out of town. Gotta do some homework for a bit, then relax. What is there to do in a small iowa town? I don't know...you tell me. After 6 years of being here, i haven't figured it out yet! :) But that's life!

My first Blog
Hello Everyone, what a week i have had. Well, to be honest i should say what a month i have had. Anyways, i have been blocked from my classes since the start of term due to some missing documents. I filled those things out and sent them in 3 TIMES! Each time i would get on the internet and...still blocked...so i would call them and they would tell me that they neveer received anything. Like i said, i did this three times! Well, at least i am unblocked now. That's the good news. The bad news is that it is unit 4 and i have ALOT of work to make-up in the next week. BUT, "look at the bright side" i tell myself, it's ONLY unit 4, i am lucky i got unblocked this soon! I am sorry to be whining about my problems :) i am actually a pretty happy person, just going through a lot right now lately, and been very stressed.
But hey, that's life :)
I would love to keep writing more but i do have a lot of work to do!
